Chapter 677: Telling The Council
Madam Tyler frowned slightly at Tobias.
"What do you mean?" she asked.
Tobias shifted in his seat, his fingers brushing briefly against each other before he spoke.
"The Trine of Ash and Vein does not stand on its own," he said. "It draws power from a source."
A few brows furrowed around the table.
He glanced at Madam Tyler, then back at the assembled council.
"From what I know," he continued carefully, "the Trine of Ash and Vein must draw power from something that has significance to whoever or whatever is being placed within the seal."
Mary tilted her head slightly.
"Like the Circle?" she asked. "And whoever is being sealed must have a connection to it?"
Tobias nodded immediately.
"Exactly," he said. "And from what Madam Tyler just explained, the Circle was used for rituals—black magic rituals, I think. That already implies a connection to Dolion, who was sealed within it. It fits too well to ignore."
